Dear Lord accept my evening song
Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #CCL (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Evening hymns Lyrics: 1 Dear Lord accept my evening song,
Such as my soul can raise;
Receive the off'rings of my tongue,
And help me sing thy praise.
2 Through grace and mercy I was spar'd,
To close another day:
O may I duly be prepar'd!
My tribute now to pay.
3 What can I offer thee my Lord,
To recompense thy love;
Yea, all I have or could afford,
Would not sufficient prove.
4 Thy mercies are beyond degree,
They cannot be express'd;
Thy blessings still bestow'd on me,
Can only make me blest.
5 What numbers of the human race,
This evening weep and mourn;
The evils which with some took place,
Are scarcely to be borne.
6 What accidents of grief and woe,
Were many made to share:
To trace this vale of tears below,
We find such ev'ry where.
7 Why was it not my lot and fate,
Like such to feel the rod!
Who kept me in a better state,
But thou my gracious God!
8 How greatly should this humble me
That such a worm as I,
An object of thy grace should be,
Such mercies to enjoy.
9 I praise thee O my Lord and King,
Thy goodness I adore;
My soul shall of thy mercies sing,,
And thank thee evermore. Languages: English

At Even, When the Sun was Set
Author: Henry Twells Hymnal: Revival Hymns and Choruses #78 (1970) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Evening hymns Lyrics: 1 At even, when the sun was set,
The sick, O Lord, around Thee lay;
O in what divers pains they met!
O with what joy they went away!
2 Once more 'tis eventide, and we
Oppressed with various ills, draw near:
What if thy form we cannot see;
We know and feel that thou art here.
3 O Saviour Christ, our woes dispel:
For some are sick, and some are sad,
And some have never loved Thee well,
And some have lost the love they had;
4 And none, O Lord, have perfect rest,
For none are wholly free from sin;
And they who fain would serve thee best
Are conscious most of wrong within.
5 O Saviour Christ, thou too art man,
Thou hast been troubled, tempted, tried;
Thy kind but searching glance can scan
The very wounds that shame would hide.
6 Thy touch has still its ancient pow'r;
No word from thee can fruitless fall:
Hear in this solemn evening hour,
And in Thy mercy heal us all.
Amen.

2 Once more 'tis eventide, and we,

3 O Saviour Christ, our woes dispel;
For some are sick, and some are sad,
And some have never loved Thee well,
And some have lost the love they had;
4 And some are pressed with worldly care,
And some are tried with sinful doubt;
And some such grievous passions tear
That only Thou canst cast them out;
5 And some have found the world is vain,
Yet from the world they break not free;
And some have friends who give them pain,
Yet have not sought a friend in Thee.
6 And none, O Lord, have perfect rest,
For none are wholly free from sin;
And they who fain would serve Thee best
Are conscious most of wrong within.
7 O Saviour Christ, Thou too art Man;
Thou has been troubled, tempted, tried;
Thy kind but searching glance can scan
The very wounds that shame would hide!
8 Thy touch has still its ancient power;
No word from Thee can fruitless fall;
Hear in this solemn evening hour,
And in Thy mercy heal us all.

The silence and smile of His love are the token,
Who now for all comers invitingly waits.

The dews of the night cure the wounds of the day;
We come, our life's worth and its brevity feeling,
With thanks for the past, for the future we pray.

Sustain us in work till the time of our rest;
When earth's day is over, may heaven's tomorrow
Dawn on us, of homes long expected possessed. Languages: English Tune Title: WHITCHURCH

We kneel at close of day;
Look on Thy children from on high,
And hear us while we pray.

But let the incense of our prayers
Before Thy mercy rise.
The brightness of the coming night
Upon the darkness rolls;
With hopes of future glory chase
The shadows on our souls.
3 Let peace, O Lord, Thy peace, O God,
Upon our souls descend;
From midnight fears and perils, Thou
Our trembling hearts defend:
Give us a respite from our toil,
Calm and subdue our woes;
Through the long day we labor, Lord,
O give us now repose.

Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CCCXXV (1791) Topics: Evening hymns First Line: When, O dear Jesus, when shall I Lyrics: 1 When, O dear Jesus, when shall I
Behold thee all Serene?
Blest in perpetual Sabbath-Day,
Without a Veil between?
2 Assist me while I wander here,
Amidst a World of Cares;
Incline my Heart to pray with Love,
And then accept my Pray'rs.
3 Release my Soul from ev'ry Chain,
No more Hell's Captive led;
And pardon a repenting Child,
For whom the Saviour bled.
4 Spare me, O God, O spare the Soul,
That gives it self to thee:
Take all that I possess below,
And give thyself to me.
5 Thy Spirit, O my Father, give,
To be my Guide and Friend,
To light my Way to ceaseless Joys,
Where Sabbaths never End.

Through all the sky.

Of the universe, Thy home,
Gather us who seek Thy face
To the fold of Thy embrace,
For Thou art nigh. [Refrain]

Through the glory and the grace
Of the stars that veil Thy face,
Our hearts ascend. [Refrain]

Pass the stars, the day, the night,
Lord of angels, on our eyes
Let eternal morning rise,
And shadows end. [Refrain]
